Step into a role that goes beyond traditional clinical care. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) or Mental Health Counselor (MHC) with Choctaw Contracting Services (CCS), you will join a mission-driven team supporting the elite warriors of the United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). Your work will be pivotal in a specialized approach designed to preserve, sustain, and enhance the unique mental, emotional, and social needs of Special Operations Forces (SOFs) and their families. You will not just be treating symptoms; you will be helping to strengthen the resilience and well-being of those who carry out some of our Nation's most critical missions.
This position offers a unique opportunity to work directly with SOF units in various military base settings. The role involves providing expert individual, family, and group therapy tailored to the psychological and social challenges unique to military life. You will develop evidence-based treatment plans, oversee case management, and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, including psychiatry consultants, to enhance patient outcomes.
The work extends beyond the clinic. You will engage in active research to inform clinical interventions, produce publications for government-sponsored conferences, and participate in field observations. This includes physical activities associated with operational vehicle use to gain a practical understanding of SOF operational environments. The role requires adaptability to SOF mission demands, with readiness to ride on watercraft, aircraft, and other operational vehicles as needed.
At CCS, we go beyond traditional support roles by providing services that directly empower the USSOCOM and its members. When you join our team, you become part of a unique mission focused on resilience, well-being, and readiness. We offer a supportive and inclusive environment that values diversity and promotes a respectful culture for all team members. If you are ready to make an impact by delivering exceptional care to those who serve, apply today.
